2. Great, you’ve ignored us. And now you’ve whipped your torch around one of the cabins and found Jason’s Vorhees’ bed. Brilliant. At least have the common decency to look scared...

3. Thank you. Finally, you’re listening to us. Okay, we think we just saw a shadow move under the door to your left. So, whatever you do, don’t go and have a look. We know that shadows are fascinating but...

5. See, now look what you’ve done! That’s a machete that’s just appeared out of the ground for no apparent reason! We don’t know what made the shadow outside if Jason’s under the floorboards (could’ve been a stoat or something. we suppose), but forget that! You’ve got a machete waving in your face!

9. Like the old one, then. If you see a man in a boiler-suit wearing one of these coming towards you, run in the opposite direction. Seriously. Whatever you do, don’t carry on shagging in front of him...
